If You have something else to do then you shouldn't bother yourself watching this movie.

 In the year 1951, Eddie Mannix played by Josh Brolin is the head of physical production at Capitol Pictures and also helps to keep the scandalous behavior of its stars out of the press. After swimming actress Dee Anna played by Scarlett Johansson gets pregnant he advises her to give up the baby for foster care and later adopting the baby without revealing her identity. He often has to fend off inquiries from Thora and Thessaly Thacker (both played by Tilda Swinton), twin sisters and rival gossip columnists.

The studio is in to production of its major blockbuster Hail, Caesar!, an epic set in ancient Rome and starring Baird Whitlock played by George Clooney. During production Whitlock is abducted after taking a drink drugged by one of the extras cast. A ransom note soon arrives, written by a group calling itself "The Future" demanding $100,000. Mannix arranges to get the money from the studio's Accounting Department, as "petty cash." Whitlock awakens in a beach house and finds his way into a meeting of The Future. The members, who introduce themselves as mostly writers in the motion picture industry, explain their doctrine to him and begin to win him over to their cause. 

Meanwhile, the only person Mannix tells about this is film star Hobie Doyle played by Alden Ehrenreich.

 Doyle is at a night club when he spots the briefcase containing the ransom money across the room, recognizing it as he had lent Mannix his belt to keep it closed. It is being carried by Burt Gurney played by Channing Tatum who is also a star of a sailor comedy film depicted earlier in an elaborate dancing scene.

Doyle follows Gurney to the beach house in but, after walking in the front door, finds only Whitlock inside. The rest of The Future's members have rowed a boat containing Gurney offshore so that he can join a soviet submarine and defect to Russia. Doyle takes Whitlock back to the studio just before the police arrive at the beach house to arrest the group.

Whitlock tries to explain his new-found Communist leanings to Mannix but he orders him to finish his role in Hail, Caesar!
DeeAnna marries Joseph Silverman played by Jonah hill, a surety agent who had agreed to take her baby into foster care.

In one sentence I would say,it is not as interesting as it may seem to be. Doesn't live up to expectation at all. However if you still feel compelled to see it,you can download it from mp4hd movies  here .  You can see the trailer below. Thanks

BATMAN Vs SUPERMAN(2016): REVIEW

This was supposed to be an excellent movie but it just didn't make it. I am not saying it's 100% bad but it wasn't just what we all expected.

For those of us who don't know the plot yet,it follows as thus;
After the destruction caused by General Zod in Man of steel,Bruce Wayne(Ben Affleck) still sees Superman as a threat to humanity after 18 months. Superman notices Batman's activities and also sees him as a threat intending to stop him via the Daily Planet as Clark Kent(Henry Cavill). Lex Luthor(Jesse Eisenberg) gets his hand kryptonite which batman steals from with the intention of weaponizing it to fight Superman. While Batman is investigating Lex Luthor he finds out about his research on metahumans which feautures the flash,aquaman and wonder woman who Bruce Wayne has met in person which leaves him confused.
Batman and superman eventually face off while Lex creates a monster from Zod's body and his DNA. This is when the super heroes realize they must work together to win. Wonder woman hears about this as she is about to leave the city and comes to join the two of them in battling this monster but he is too powerful for them. They realize that it can be destroyed by kryptonite,as superman stabs it with a kryptonite spear,the monster stabs him back with its long claws killing Superman. 
Lex luthor is arrested and Batman hints on forming the Justice Leaugue while talking to wonder woman. In the end the sand on Superman's coffin begins to shake.

Why this movie did not turn out as people expected are as follows
Firstly,the talk was too much,the first one hour was spent talking which was not really necessary with scenes that seemed scattered. I felt like sleeping during this time.
Secondly, I feel the wonder woman character was weak and not really necessary. Its not like she was the heroe or heroine as the case may be at the end of the day.
Thirdly, Batman's motive wasn't strong enough for me and just made the whole movie look forced . The way he stopped himself from killing superman when he heard the name Martha didn't look original and besides why would superman call his mother by her first name.
Fourthly, casting of Lex luthor by Jesse Eisenberg in my opinion is a disaster. He just kept blabbing. Plus his motive for his role in the movie was not satisfactorily explained and Batman already wanted to fight Superman so there was no need for him. 
Fifthly, Superman didn't have to be the one to carry the kryptonite spear since it affected him too,he couldn't even move the other time Lois lane had to take it away from him,oh I am just mentioning Lois Lane she was almost that insignificant in the movie. Well they had to find a way for him to die.
And oh the way Bruce Wayne was just entering areas that are supposed to be restricted in a whole Lex Corp facility. I think I should stop here. 

In conclusion ,it wasn't 100% bad,the last moments were still okay to watch but don't just have much expectations before seeing the movie. If you disagree with me or there was something I forgot,let us know in the comments section below . thank you

CROUCHING TIGER HIDDEN DRAGON 2-SWORD OF DESTINY(2016)

Michelle Yeoh as Yu Shu

After the death of Li Mu Bai, Yu Shu Lien (Michelle Yeoh) returns to safeguard his sword, the Green Destiny.  The villian Hades Dai(Jason Scott Lee), sends his soldier  Wei fang(Harry Shum jnr) to steal the sword , but he is confronted by another martial artist snow vase(Natasha Liu) and then apprehended by Yu Shen. The need for skilled guards arises and a notice is placed, that is when Silent Wolf and four other martial artistes trained in the iron way sign up for this course. Wei fang finds out Hades Dai killed his real mother and takes it upon himself to end him after snow vase helps him escape.

Donnie Yen as Silent Wolf

Definitely an interesting movie to watch. Although it doesn't meet up with standards of the prequel shot in 2000 it still does an excellent job. Don't worry if you have not seen the first part you would still understand this one very well and find it a whole lot more interesting. I also like the fact that it was shot in English , stunt coordination was okay especially the scene on an ice floor.  The stunt coordination is not as good as chinese movies Kung fu jungle or The raid ( I love these two movies so much) you can check them out too.
I also feel they could have added more flesh to the movie,not bad if it is a 2 hr movie.

Snow vase and Wei fang fight side by side

 Well guys,you can check out the movie and watch, to see it in mobile you can download it on coolmoviez here. If you are not motivated yet you can see the trailer below.

RISEN (2016): TRAILER AND REVIEW

Risen is a movie that tells the story of the resurrection of Christ from an unbeliever's perspective. A very nice angle indeed.
 After Jesus Christ dies the romans take extra measures to secure Jesus' body so that he doesn't become a Messiah through the resurrection theory. His body dissapears but the Roman soldier Clavius (Joseph Fiennes) refuses to believe that he resurrected and believes the guards were paid to steal his body. A body hunt begins in Jerusalem .In the course of this Clavius finally believes
The movie is not like other christian movies as this is more entertaining than usual. More like an ancient detective Jewish style. It was generally a nice work. The movie begun premiering on march 18
See the trailer below.

Boyka Undisputed IV(2016): TRAILER

Boyka is back

Boyka returns in the Undisputed sequel, the franchise has proven to be awesome over the years. The movie is set to be released later in 2016.

I hope this one delivers on our expectations. See the trailer below

JARHEAD 3 THE SIEGE(2016): TRAILER AND REVIEW

Jarhead 3 cover photo

Jarhead 3: the seige directed by William Kaufman is a serious improvement from the previous sequel. This is entertaining and engaging.
Corporal Albright (Charlie Weber) is posted to duty at the American embassy in an unknown middle eastern city. His attitude
leads to friction with his boss Raines (Scott Adkins). Albright notices a suspicious camera crew outside the gates and suspects the embassy may be under surveillance but he is shut down by other offices because he is a rookie. A terrorist group attacks the embassy  beginning a siege on the civilians
and marines.
Among the civillians is a documentarian (Dante
Basco),a female staff and the ambassador. They call for back up and a team of special forces commandos depart to their rescue led by Major Lincoln (Dennis Haybert). But they can only get there within the hour so until then they have to hold and fight back. Sergeant Raines gets killed in the cross fire leaving Corporal Albright in charge of the team.
Jarhead 3 is a must watch action movie with a sense of humour from Dante Bosco which keeps it entertaining. Gunnery Raines played by Scott Adkins popular for his role as Boyka in Undisputed also did a good job as we see a different side of him that exists. Charlie Webber who took the lead role did an amazing job with his character and delivered as he should. Nice story,nice casting,nice acting and nice editing. Check out the trailer below.

GODS of EGYPT (2016) : Trailer and Review

 

Gerard Butler seems to be loving movies that are ancient with swords as he features in this movie GODS of EGYPT alongside Nikolaj Coster Waldau from Game of Thrones. God of the air Horus is about to be coronated king of Egypt when his uncle Set(Gerard Butler) comes and presents a horn as a gift and tells him to blow it. Little did he know it was a signal for his Uncle's army to come in. Set kills his brother the current King and challenges Horus to a fight and after a while of hand combat they both transfrom to some Marvel robot-like creatures which i wonder why they didn't do from the start. Set over-powers him with a little cheating and plucks out his eye which seems to possess power. Just as he is about to kill him Hathor the god of love pleads on his behalf to show mercy and spare his life. He is then cast away to a crypt and his eye is kept in a location with security mechanism worse than laser beams. Then Bek a mortal boy whose girlfriend believes so much in Horus goes on a quest to retrieve his eyes and return it to Horus but he unfortunately finds only one eye. In the process of his escape with his girlfriend she is shot by an arrow and she dies. Horus promises to bring her back if he helps him locate the other eye so he can save all of Egypt. Horus is quite aware that there is nothing he can do to bring her back but he says that to motivate Bek in having an alliance with him. They also get help from Hathor and Thoth the god of wisdom. In the end they defeat Set but Bek dies in the process. When Horus takes his body so he can lay it beside his girlfriend his father appears to him to ask for a wish. He asks that both Bek and his girlfriend be restored back to life and it is granted. Horus becomes the king of Egypt with Bek being his special adviser. 

While this may be an interesting plot some things are wrong with this movie, starting from the part where the casts do not look like Egyptians  with a lot of white faces as opposed to what ancient Egypt should look like.Although the director has apologized publicly.

Then the area of poor graphics which does not make the movie very real in an era where CGI graphics has taken over, the movie looks like it was shot years ago.

Also the god of wisdom didn't seem very wise to me as I can't exactly pin point one wise thing he did. Horus played by Nikolaj Coster Waldau didn't portray his role with so much energy as if to say he was bored by it and Bek did most of the work seeming like a god himself and being the main attraction of the movie. I also did not quite grasp the concept of "immortals" dying. I mean immortals don't die right?
However,the movie did deliver on being engaging for most of the run time and displays the love side as well as the action with a nice plot.

If you enjoyed movies like clash of the titans then you would probably find this movie fun. Here is the trailer below. Enjoy.

50 SHADES OF BLACK(2016): TRAILER AND REVIEW

 

This movie is a complete mockery of fifty shades of grey,not that I am a fan of that either. 50 shades of black which is supposed to be comedy and a spoof of the original movie turns out to be absolute stupidity. The plot follows same as 50 shades of grey but in this case Christian Black. Most of the scenes were repeated in a way that's just annoying and so many offensive conversations, from racist talk to sexist and so on. The movie fails to deliver on both comedy or romance. It's just an epic failure,its so bad they have a rating of 7% on rotten tomatoes. I guess Malon Wayans days are long gone because his role in haunted house was nothing to write home about also. I beg you,do not for any reason see this movie.If they had taken it a little bit more serious perhaps it would have been a nice movie. If you disagree with me share your thoughts in the comments section. Thank you. Well see the trailer below.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle 2(2016): Trailer

X-MEN APOCALYPSE(2016) :TRAILER

X-men has no doubt been one of the sucesfull movie franchise. This latest sequel is titled apocalypse and to be released May,2016. Now I don't know about you but I am very sure i don't want to miss this when it comes out. There are a lot of things we can see from the trailer, we see professor Xavier is now bald,I have always wondered the correlation from his looks in first class and days of future past. The apocalypse who is the first mutant ever from ancient Egypt can control all mutants,the X-men seem to be in a lot of trouble with that. Jean Grey seems to be having sleepless nights as she sees visions of the apocalypse before his arrival but Xavier tries to calm her down . Our lovely storm will not be played by the sexy Halle Berry,well this is because they are still in the 80's according to the story. We can also see mystique fighting on the Xavier side. We are not exactly sure if wolverine will be in this movie. Enough of my talk,see the trailer below. Enjoy!!!

JUNGLE BOOK(2016): TRAILER

So here is another 2016 movie we are expecting to see this year,Jungle Book. This is set to be released in April,2016.

Many of us are familiar with this story as kids,seems the jungle thing is working, reminds me of George of the jungle. Take a look at the trailer below.

13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi (Trailer)

 

This movie was released January,2016 and directed by Micheal Bay. This real life war film told the story of six soldiers who fought in Benghazi,Libya to protect the American diplomatic house trying to save 36 American citizens. Despite the clear orders from the local CIA chief to stand down these men fought for what they believed was right. Reminds me of Lone survivor by Mark Wahlberg. I wonder if American Soldiers don't get charged for mutiny, the rate at which their movies portray the Soldiers making their own call. Well its in a positive way. There is nothing really to criticize since survivors of the incident claim the movie actually portrays the events that happened. So sit back and enjoy the trailer
